I took a deep breath in. Berry was the sixth mew; she was the only one to be fused with two animals. How could I have forgotten about Berry?

"Mew Berry was your mom?"

"Yeah, she was." I leaned my head against his. Why didn't he have powers if he Mew Berry was his mother? I didn't know, and I didn't want to ask. I had put Mikio into too much pain for one day.

I woke up the next morning to realize that Mikio had never gone back to his little bed on the ground but had fallen asleep with me. I slowly nudged him, hoping that he would wake up, which he did.

"Mikio, you fell asleep before you got back to your bed." I hissed into his ear.

"What? Oh… God… Sorry about that…"

"Yeah, right." I rolled my eyes and he climbed out of bed, then helped me out. My ribs still felt as if they were going to explode but they felt a tiny, little bit better. We managed to get down the stairs and into the kitchen in one peace, where Keiichiro and Ryou were waiting, eating breakfast. I carefully sat down in one of the chairs and Keiichiro grabbed me a plait of eggs and bacon.

"Your mother and father will be here soon, so you'll be able to go home and rest for a little while." Said Ryou as he took a bit of bacon.

"Yeah, rest until Nariyuki comes flying into my bedroom." I muttered as I moved my fork around the plait. We heard the door to the café open and then Mum and Dad walk into the kitchen.

"Yuki! Oh, sweetheart are you okay? What happened?" Mum started to embrace me, but I quickly pushed her away so she wouldn't damage my ribs any more.

"Yeah Mum, I'm fine. Nothing happened I just… got into a little trouble."

"What kind of trouble?" Dad asked.

"Nothing, it doesn't matter." I saw Mikio's eyes grow wide and Ryou and Keiichiro's eyebrows go up, but none of them made any comments.

"Okay, lets just get you home, we'll talk about this later." Dad said as he walked over to me and helped me up. I looked over at Mikio and gave him a smile and a small wave goodbye as I walked out the door.

We arrived home soon after and dad helped me up the stairs and into bed, where I laid for most of the day. I was close to falling asleep when Mum called up to me, "Yuki! You have visitors!" The next minute all the girl mews were in my bedroom.

"Hey Yuki, how are you?" Akiko asked as she sat down on the end of my bed.

"How am I? I feel like I was run over by a car, that's how I am." I grumbled. I knew they were trying to help, comfort me and stuff, but did they really have to ask if I was alright when it was so obvious that I wasn't?

"What happened?" Tade asked as she knelt down beside me, looking at my bruised up face.

"I went to the park to meet up with Akinori, I broke up with him, he flipped and beat me up, and now my ribs are bruised, my face is bruised, my arm hurts like shit, AND if my dad ever finds out what happened he will never let me date again."

"Why didn't you fight back?" Emiko asked.

"I HAD JUST BEEN POISONED EARLIER THAT VERY SAME DAY!" I yelled in frustration. What had they expected me to do? Get better the instant they used the mew aqua on me? Get real people!

"But how could Akinori do such a thing? He always seemed so nice…" Akiko looked down at her hands, obviously very confused about his sudden change.

"Yeah, well, he obviously isn't as nice as we thought." I stated as I fiddled with a loose string on my blanket. "If I never see his face again it will be too soon!" I nearly screamed out with anger.

"See who's face honey?" I looked up to see Mum standing at the door.

"No one, what is it Mum?"

"I think your friends should probably leave now."

"Okay… see you later everybody."

"Bye!" They all said as they left the room.

"Why don't you get some sleep sweetheart? You have probably had a ruff day yesterday and no sleep."

"Okay Mum, goodnight."

"Goodnight sweetie." Mum closed the door softly behind her and I snuggled under my covers, feeling my back finding the softness of my bed a welcome guest. I found myself starting to drift away into a relaxing sleep.
